I have an adapter with microphone that allows any headset to be used for calls and music control, with iPhone. Tried to use it with Inspire 4G and got no sound whatsoever (regular headphones work fine, but of course, no mic or music control then). Pictures of HTC headset with mic show similar 3 ring insert, but something must be slightly different. Has anyone successfully used a microphone headset specifically for Inspire 4G, and/or an adapter that will function with any set of headphones?
I have 1 with an inline mic.
However the sound quality when I plug it in is HORRIBLE compared to just headphones.
Dont know why.
Have tested this with 2 inline mics.
I'm using a Monster iBeats in ear set with my 4G. Sound quality is great for music, very good for phone.
My inline mic will pause music but the volume does not work for music.
For phone calls, I can mute, unmute and answer, but volume control does not work.
This set on my wifes iPhone the volume control works for both music and phone and also allows you to forward itunes tracks.
I just use the volume control on the side of the phone on the Inspire with this headset.

DO you notice a difference when using Mic and headphones as opposed to just headphones?
I am noticing a difference even when using my Shure headphones.
What rom/kernal are u using?

I do not notice any difference in sound quality whether I use the Mic or not.
I'm running Rooted Stock ROM with bloat removed.
There is an app called Headset Button Controller
Just installed it and I can adjust the volume, move forward and back in music tracks and also turn volume up and down with this app installed in media apps.
Interestingly it only uses the center button to do all this on a three button headset.
In phone mode center button ends call. So it does not change anything compared to not running it.
I'll run it and see how I like it, initial impressions are it fixes what doesn't work native with the headset in media mode.

Wow.
Im starting to wonder if there is something wrong with my phone now
I THINK what is happening is that when I connect my mic it switches from Stereo to Mono. Duno tho.

I have purchased this app and will say that it is great. I use the same headset that I use to use with my ipod but now I find it easier to use. I use my phone while riding the motorcycle and I feel like.I have greater control over the music now..only problem I am having is people can't hear me through the Mic on the headset. Any ideas. No it didn't work before I had the software.

my old HTC Aria would send all sounds, even notifications, through my bluetooth speakerphone adapter for the car. So, I could be listening to music, and hear my email notification tone, then the music would play again. I was using CM7.1 on the Aria.
So far, the Skyrocket does not do this no matter which ROM I've used. I will be listening to music through car speakers, then hear the phone speaker play my email notification, then my car speakers play music again. It's a bit odd. I haven't used CM on it, because it doesn't appear to be a "daily driver"...
Any word on if the thing will do it, or how to make it happen?
I'm fairly sure all my ROM's have done this. My stereo is a JVC.
One ROM and I wish I knew which it was, would even give my GPS a separate volume indicator so I could make the GPS much louder than the music.
None of the ROM's I've tried since then do that. They all put everything into one single Bluetooth volume.
I am using stock unrooted UCLE2, I think its called, and it works for me through the Bluetooth stereo in my Camry.

Our note ank skyrocket both do this. It has something to do with system media but i have not had time to look into it. Back when I was playing I noticed that if you use an app like zedge or video caller id to set the notification it plays over bt or headphones...if you set through system menu it plays through phone only Or sometimes you get both...

I wanted an app to play audio through a phone earpiece, so that if I didn't take my headphones somewhere, I could still listen to an audio book as if I was on the phone. So I made a very simple app that toggles whether sound comes from the earpiece or the speaker: Earpiece.
Currently alpha, or maybe early beta, quality. Works on my Epic 4G Touch. Don't know how many other phones it'll work for. (Interestingly, I also noticed that if I have earphones plugged in and I select earpiece mode, then the volume goes up a little. I am curious if this happens for other users)
I also wanted an app that would let me boost the audio volume, so I added that functionality to Earpiece while I was at it (Android 2.3+ only, should work even on devices like tablets that don't have an earpiece). I know there are such apps (Volume+ seems to be the most popular one), but why have a separate app for this?
You can set Earpiece to show up when you long-press the search key. (I don't use this feature myself. Instead, I have another simple app that pops up a menu of my favorite apps when I long-press the search key, and I use that to launch Earpiece.)

With what settings in Earpiece?
I would expect the Boost setting to interfere with DSP Manager, since both apps would be trying to do the same thing.

Thanks! Tell me more. How did you test it?
Here's how I test. I start an audio book playing in Mortplayer, and then go to Earpiece, and toggle the Earpiece checkmark.
Clever idea, thanks!
Works perfectly on my HTC EVO 3D ICS 4.0.3 leak, boost as well - even the feeble speaker becomes louder
Cheers

Works perfectly on ZTE Blade.

It looks like the person on the other end of the line is just talking your ear off and not letting you get a word in.
Question: Should I activate the proximity sensor in Earpiece mode, and turn the device screen off and on based on closeness to the face?

Thats great idea. Im using this in sgs2 running aokp.

I just posted 0.02 with proximity sensor support.
Screen off while close to face is default for phone calls on my htc, saves lots! of battery during long talks.
So, yes, please
Workaround so far: With screen off manually (power button), sound plays nicely in the background.
Thanks and Cheers!
EDIT: Too fast for me Thanks again!

Did this happen with the previous version?
Can you send me a log after the crash? Install Log Collector, then do the crash again, and then go to Log Collector to email the log to arpruss at gmail dot com.
My ICS has a not stable beats installed, deactivated it, now works flawless
Noticed that the "Volume up/down" beeps don't get routed through earpeace, which is fine with me. Probably, because it's not a media volume sound?
Cheers!
Work on zte blade, but is it possible to use earpiece + speaker in same time?

You mean, for greater volume?
I doubt it, but I can experiment and see. Might actually be hard to tell if it's working, because the earpiece speaker will be drowned out by the main speaker.
I just posted 0.03.
It switches to the earpiece using a slightly different method. I'd appreciate reports whether it works for people.
By the way, no luck routing audio to BOTH the speaker and the earpiece at the same time.
I posted a release in the Market.
The release version carries one text ad on the screen, for my paid products. If the ad annoys you, just buy any of my paid products and the ad will disappear. Or just use a pre-release version.
Cool thing I found. If you turn on Earpiece while in Camera, the camera sound gets routed to the earpiece, and hence is very quiet, at least in my Epic 4G Touch.
(I know there are root-based solutions to the camera sound issue, but I haven't rooted my phone yet--I haven't found a way to do it that's both safe and doesn't involve copyright problems, like downloading unauthorized copies of parts of ROMs.)
I posted 1.01 in the Market and on the google code page. If you press MENU, you can go to Settings and select whether you want the status bar notification always, only when the background service is running, or never. The "never" is attractive if you don't like clutter, but unfortunately it allows the OS to kill Earpiece's proximity sensor and boost features (they need the background service) when the OS runs out of memory. Still, it's up to the user.
I am kind of excited by my discovery that earpiece mode makes the camera sound come out of the earpiece and hence be very quiet. I've experimented some more, and when I combine this with a negative volume boost, I can make the camera sound almost inaudible--probably inaudible to anybody more than two feet away except in an almost perfectly silent environment. Of course, for rooted devices there are ways of turning it off entirely, but I don't have root, and I want to be able to take pictures without disturbing people.
So, I have tried 6 types of headphones, and 3 work normally.
On the other 3 that don't work, when I press play on Play music it plays for a sec through the speaker, then stops, then plays for a sec, then stops, and does that until it finally stops.
Does anybody have a similar problem or do you have any solutions?
Thanks!

See when it stops, does the google voice search appear on screen ?
as if it has detected noise from the headphones as a voice.

It doesn't show up, and the phone doesn't stop, the music plays for a second, then it stops, then it plays again for a sec, and it stops. It does that a few times until it stops and I have to press play again.
EDIT: I have to say that headphones that don't work all had microphones, and the ones that worked didn't have them, so maybe you are on to something.
I will try to disable google voice search somehow, maybe it will work.
Is the Headphone fixed in the moto g or is it wabbeling?
I have an AUX-cable with a stop/play button on one connector it doesn't work. But when I turn the cable and use the other connector it works.
I had an issue were Google search would show due to noise from the earphones even when nothing was playing, fixed it by using an app called wizdroid
Not sure if it will fix your issue but wouldn't hurt to try

Hey guys,
I have encountered a similar problem where my headphones indeed seem to trigger google voice search, or pauze the playing music. However, i have not found it to be related to any specific headphones. At first I thought that maybe a bad ground contact on the plug was being registered as a command from headphones with controls, however:
Non of the headphones i have used have controls, they are all regular headphones with TRS (three ring) connectors.
The headphone plug on my Moto G seems plenty solid.
According to the official Moto G forum, the Moto G doesn't even support headphones with contols. (see https://forums.motorola.com/posts/44afe72921)
@lakyboss: maybe that last point is why the headphones with microphones are not working for you.
Kind regards,
Dracorius
So, bottom line is that Moto G doesn't support these types of headphonees? Excellent

Read carefully.
It says that 3 button controls are not supported. This mostly refers to headsets designed for iPhones that have the control button as well as Vol Up and Vol Down buttons.
This isn't just the case for the Moto G. The Samsung S3 for example would only work with *Samsung* 3 button headsets but wouldn't work with Sennheiser or most other third party 3 button headphones.
The main/control button for third party headsets works for the Moto G, I've tried Brainwavz, Soundmagic and Sennheiser headphones with mic and button and all work fine for controlling music and answering calls.
Setting up the button controls via PowerAmp (or the player of choice), Headset Button Control* or similar apps might be needed depending on your settings.
(*Trial here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kober.headset)
I have Skullcandy Ink'd 2 which have one button for answering calls/playing music/activating voice search (long press).
They worked on my Nexus S, One X, my laptop, but whatever I play on Moto G, it doesn't work. I've tried Google Play Music, YouTube, few other music players, even tried flashing a new rom, it still doesn't work.

Just bought Nokia Coloud Pop, and its is not working on my device(A110Q).
When I play music, only background music is being played, the voice is not audible
There a button on the headphone(remote controller), when I press, the voice is also audible along with the music, mean to say, it works fine with the button pressed, else not.
I called Nokia, they said the headphone is only for high end nokia devices.
So what I want to ask is that is there any way out?
are there apps to fix the problem, or any converter?
and out of curiosity, what causes this problem? I've faced this miss match of headphone with mobile phone many times.
Thank you in advance!

I damaged my earphones and tried using samsung's earphones and faced the same issue that u faced. I just applied tape on the mic so that it will always stay pressed and now it works perfectly. That's the best method
use earfones without mic
those works perfectly

people are suggesting crazy ways! dude, this way you can damage your sound IC, better buy a new headset, it won't cost you above 500 bucks, and will definitely save you the poison of getting your sound IC replaced.
'Jugaad' can sometimes prove drastic!
Thank's note......!!
Thank you very much man for posting this question.
I always had to hold the pin right when ever I heard something from my phone , but after I tried holding the remote button
the audio play's perfectly . Now it's just enough to hold the button without worrying about reseting the pin over and over again....
:good::good::good::good:
best way even i also tried
i am also facing the same problem with mic headphones.
1.}}}}i like the skullcandy most but with mic does not work so i add the aux splitter between tham but the mic does not work .
2.}}}}and the best way i found is use the universal earphone with ip or nk switch button that works with mic and supports in all phones.
3.}}}} the other is ubon earphone is work well in our device .
thanks for reading my post say thanks if this would work. :good:
